From the best-selling author of the Rising series, |
comes the first of a new Young Adult Paranormal spin-off.Olympus High: The Lost Gods

Jemma knows something is seriously wrong. Joal, her life-long crush, is talking to her. 

Garden Grove, Washington has many secrets, and Jemma Ryan is one of them.  Growing up in a small town, she dreams of the day she’ll escape, dreams of the day she can forget Joal, the boy who, despite brushing shoulders with her for the last seventeen years, can never remember who she is. How many times can a girl have her heart broken? 

Joal Forsetti is the captain of the swim team. Oh, and he happens to be a son of Poseidon. And at Olympus High, home of many demigods, he’s the only full god at the school. At least he was, until she showed up, the new girl, Jemma Ryan. The girl that makes him want to drop to his knees and beg for a simple glance.

So why does everyone act like she’s been there all along?

A Tale of Two Houses
Susan Harris
(Defy the Stars, #1)
Published by: CTP Pulse
Genres: Fairy Tales, Fantasy, Young Adult
Centuries ago, the royal house of witches in Vernanthia split into two factions: House Cambridge and House Montgomery. These two houses warred with each other for an age, causing widespread bloodshed and death. Those without magic—the Nulls—suffered the most. One day, a favored daughter of the Nulls was slain. With her dying breath, she cursed the covens to know no peace until love was possible between the houses.
That curse had long since been forgotten—until now.
Julian Montgomery is the reluctant Prince of House Montgomery and Rowan Cambridge is in no rush to become the Queen of House Cambridge. Both heirs long for freedom from their birthright obligations. When fate throws these two star-crossed lovers together, it sends them on a collision course with destiny that neither could have predicted.
Shakespeare’s classic Romeo & Juliet is reimagined in this compelling drama about two young people drawn by fate into an unwinnable situation. If you think you know how this story ends—think again!

 About the AuthorTyler H. Jolley is five-foot sixteen inches. By day he is an orthodontist, and by night he is a sci-fi/fantasy author. He carries a curse with him each day, too many fun book ideas and too little time to write them. There isn’t a place or time that ideas don’t slam into the creative squishy part of his brain. Fun facts: he hasn’t puked since 1996, he loves pencils and mountain biking. Writing and riding are a big part of his life.
